RULER WORK WINDING WAYS & RIBBON CANDY



The classroom will be unlocked and open 15 minutes before class starts.
Would you like to be able to quilt an entire quilt on your domestic machine with a basic meander pattern?
The Winding Ways template used with a Ruler Foot makes this so do-able and looks so beautiful when it is
completed! And it's fast once you learn how to use it! We'll go over how to use the template, including ways
to offset the template so the quilted pattern looks more organic - AND what to do when you have more
template than fabric at the end of a row. You're going to LOVE working with this template and what you can
do with it!

Prerequisite: Beginning Ruler Work class

Please arrive early enough to have your machine set up and ready to sew before class starts.
